How is your experience with exporting GIFs in terms of file size? They tend to run larger than, say, mp4 files, right?
I use Shotcut btw.
GIFs exported in the original file resolution are usually pretty damn big, but I don't like giant GIFs myself, so I've found the 480x270 to be a good size to keep most of them below 25 megabytes.
I recommend using WebM container with VP9 codec instead of GIF if you are exporting it for web. It even supports alpha.
